Abstract: The second harmonic of radiation from a molecular NH₃ laser was generated for the first time in CdGeAs₂ single crystals. The internal efficiency of the frequency doubling reached 5% for radiation at the wavelength of 11.7 μ, when the efficiency of conversion of CO₂ laser radiation power (used for direct optical pumping of the NH₃ laser) into 6-μ radiation was highest.
